The two Arab suicide bombers, who posed as journalists to kill Afghan opposition fighter Ahmed Shah Massod, originally intended to kill the entire leadership council of the Northern Alliance, the Washington Post reports in its Tuesday edition. The attackers repeatedly requested to meet with the entire leadership council, requesting one minute to take a joint picture, but were denied permission, the Post reported.
The two killed Massod when a bomb hidden in their video equipment was detonated, the Post said. Bureau Report
